This is a very simple breakfast with minimal chopping/standing/dishes... so it is great when you are feeling under the weather, but still want a nice home-cooked breakfast. Of course you can serve this one any time of the day, too, as a side dish or an appetizer.
Ingredients:
Leftover potatoes- boiled whole or in pieces, baked, mashed or even frozen hashed brown potatoes!
1 bag of frozen chopped spinach STILL FROZEN!
1 red onion, chopped
Vegan Butter, Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder for seasoning...
Instructions:
Grab last night's potatoes... or some boiled potatoes that you might have on hand... Make sure they are piecey, and press them into a greased cupcake pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Next, sprinkle frozen chopped spinach on top of each cup of potatoes. Sprinkle with garlic powder, lightly
Finally, dice up some red onion and sprinkle a bit on top of each cup. Some people prefer to add a pat of vegan butter on top.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 20-30 minutes, or until the onions look nice and caramelized on the edges.
You might choose to let these cool for 20 or so minutes, so that the potatoes stick together when you remove them from the cups. (This is why leftover fried potatoes probably won't work as well for this one.)

Quiche
Ingredients:
1 pastry shell
1 1/2 c milk
1/4 t salt
dash ground nutmeg
1 1/2 c shredded cheese of choice
3 beaten eggs
1/4 c sauteed onion
1/8 t pepper
3/4 c ingredient of choice (either cooked meat, meat substitute, veggies or a combination of these)
1 T all-purpose flour
Instructions:
Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil, and bake in a 450 degree oven for 5 minutes. Remove foil, and bake 5-7 minutes more or till pastry is nearly done. Remove from the oven.
Reduce oven temp to 325 degrees.
In a bowl, stir together eggs, milk, sauteed onion, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
In separate bowl, toss cheese of choice with 1 T flour. Add cheese mixture to the egg mixture.
Either add your ingredient of choice to the bowl then adding to pie shell, or arrange in atop the egg mixture once it is poured into the pastry shell... depends on your ingredient of choice!
Bake in a 325 degree oven for 35-40 minutes, or till a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
If necessary, cover the edge of the crust with foil or pastry ring, to prevent over-browning.
Allow to stand for 10 minutes before serving.
